I made a quick 10 minute card today for a birthday party we went to. I made the card with the color challenge from hello cutie challenges blog.

these are the colors I was supposed to use.

and this is the card I made with them. You can't really tell but the edge of the white paper is edged in gray ink, and I used my gray glitter pen to add some sparkle to the embossed flowers, I used white core paper for the embossed paper and then sanded the raised areas so you could see the white beneath.

I had a few days off last week so I had some time to craft a little, in between, working out, cleaning the house and taking Jack to do tons of fun stuff. I kept my card pretty simple. I had to make a bridal shower card for our friends Roger and Kayti who are getting married soon. The big pear, the little background pears and the sentiment "The Perfect Pear" were a dollar set in the dollar bin stamps at JoAnns Fabrics. I heat embossed the sentiment and the big pear. I made a few more cards for a lady at work celebrating her birthday. More photos to come.
